[comp.sys.apple2] Serial card did WHAT?

rat@deety.UUCP (David Douthitt) (07/19/90)

I'd been using my standard RS-232 cable for a while,
with Ascii Express, QTerm, UUCP...

Then my local uucp host went down for two weeks - and
I installed an RS-232 jumper box to support ModemWorks on my
system.

When my uucp host came back up, I went to use uucp and
PCPI CP/M.  However, it crashed almost inevitably into
the monitor.  It was a SAAAADDD sight.

Then, upon removal of the ModemWorks jumper box, I found
that PCPI CP/M works just fine.

Anybody know what happened?  Morgan, do you know?
